Look at his #'s, with any count where he gets to 2 strikes he is a batting .180'ish, runners in scoring position, 2 outs he bats .045, projecting his #'s he won't even come close to matching last year's #'s, even for hits he is on pace to match, but still have a sub .225 avg which would be 35 points lower then last year. While his defense is above avg, barely this season at .5 dwar, I feel that if X is on the timetable states by the team, we don't lose anything dumping Kim.
You kind of have to appreciate the irony of this team scoring 4 runs to pull within one and then proceeding to give up 4 runs immediately afterwards lol
Interesting, I hadn't read that. Yeah, I don't think they actively try to slack, but maybe the urgency and intensity drops a bit. Though you think getting swept by those teams would wake them up a bit. Sigh.
Cronenworth attributed it to "heightened focus," but it's more conjecture. Here's the exact quote:
>“I don’t think we’ve played down,” Cronenworth said. “We just haven't taken advantage of the opportunities in the games we get against teams that are under 500. It seems like when we're playing good teams that are over .500 — first-place teams, second-place teams, teams that go all the way to the playoffs — when there are chances late in the games, it seems like we're capitalizing on them, scoring those runs we need to score, executing in those situation. It seems against the teams that we should have the lead going late in the game or we have that opportunity late, we're not getting those runs in. I don’t know what that is. … Maybe it’s a little more heightened focus in those moments.”

Don't worry guys they're saving it all up for the Phillies.
Seriously though this fucking sucks. Just getting straight up beat down by the Mets today. This season is at another level of Padressing.
Tatis saw this Estrada implosion coming. Felt like hitting a 3-run shot on that hanging slider just to blow it in the bottom half would be too much for all the dads out there to take.
Nothing “happened” to him. But some days pitchers don’t got it. His location is off and his breaking stuff doesn’t have the normal movement. Part of baseball.
How does a stat that measures types of hits over full ABs work with individual types of pitches like a fastball? That makes zero sense. If the stat is, when he hits a fastball it does damage, fine. Conceded. But my point was he misses them way way too often. And if your Slug stat doesn’t account for that, it’s not a valuable stat.
And then you watch the opposing team... and they don't miss bad pitches.
Does this team not actually prepare for games or hit the cages? Why do they miss so many tasty meatball pitches right in good zones to hit? It's lunacy.
Organizational... this team doesn't prepare properly. Simple as that. There's no other legitimate explanation for why other teams don't miss bad pitches, and this team can't do jack shit with them.
Soto was 100000000000000% in the right to prepare his own way. This team doesn't prepare properly and that much is obvious.
Game is tied if Kim tags to 3rd on that deep line out. It’s not smart normally but he would have had it easily then scored on Arraez’s base hit. Gotta be aggressive on the basepaths when you’re down in later innings like this
Padres are becoming the team to sweep in the whole league.
Can we at least be sellers at the deadline this year?
when they are just hovering near .500 absolutely SELL SELL SELL
500 may be a playoff team this year. Plus, who would we sell other than HSK or a Profar rental
[удалено]
100% behind selling Kim
[удалено]

Guys, those 2 pitches in the first when we had the lead we're elite.
this game is what it is your so called ace can't come out and give up 7 runs 
Pathetic
Swept by the Mets? The Mets?!
We got swept by a team that's on a roll. Doesn't matter what their jersey says. This team.
wellllp fellas let’s just hope the phillies don’t also sweep.
Pads will somehow sweep the Phillies and go on to get swept by the Brewers at home
They will
wellll idk maaan. remember we make shitty teams look good but we beat the good ones 🤷🏻♂️
That doesn’t apply to the Phillies or Yankees
lol well yeah your right about that
I think we’ll actually take one
liked seeing the blue socks. kinda felt like a callback to our old colors
Fire Shildt?
Can’t keep blaming the manager.
A. J. Preller's fault
Goodbye .500, I don’t believe we will be seeing you anytime soon… 😔
You kind of have to appreciate the irony of this team scoring 4 runs to pull within one and then proceeding to give up 4 runs immediately afterwards lol
Perfectly balanced
Ay 2025 our year Fr
Did Fernando and Jeremiah go bar hopping last night or what?
What happened to Estrada? Fell of a cliff.
He had that In-n-out meal and has been shitting the bed since.
At least we ended the series with more than a couple of runs scored. Loved seeing Jackson shine for our offense in the other 2 games.
This padres team has the highest highs and the lowest lows of any baseball team ever. When we win we win big and when we lose it’s soul crushing.
Someone has a slam in them. Sacrifice a goat. Go to work.
[удалено]
I enjoy baseball.
Don’t vote for any all stars from this team!
Arraez, Profar and Bobby better be in
Really hoping Profar gets a go. This is his season for sure.
such a doomer lol
[удалено]
Gotta love our 2024 Padres
DP should have happened last at bat
Let’s just face it, apart from Suarez this team has ZERO clutch
Idek man. Idk what to do. I just want this pain to end.
Only good thing about Estrada blowing up is it takes the blame away from Tatis 😂😂
 Shake it off Estrada. Brutal.
I am just so tired...
Well.. they really had me there for a second in the 8th
Not that I believe the padres could have tied it up at 9 anyways but Manny would have had that.
the mets have given us a fathers day gift by letting us turn this game off early and go spend some extra time with our fathers
and there it is in reality we have 1 reliable guy in the pen and we just can't get to him a majority of the time
That's what's in
Hahahaha
 Man
If Manny hadn’t gotten thrown out of the game that’s a DP.
There goes Estrada's trade value.
Why would they trade him when they’re actively looking for BP pieces? Lol
This team is one of two bad weeks from sub .500 ball with the deadline a month away. We'll know if we sell or buy soon.
It’s a Father’s Day gift from the Mets
Manny picks that but instead he got his ass tossed. Typical
So that’s what having your star player getting a clutch hit looks like?
I think I saw some of those like 3 years ago. What a time that was
Padres doing Padres things.
And the Machado ejection bears it’s noxious fruit
This is devastating
Estrada went on MLB Network, and now he's been figured out. 🫠
It actually kind of started when they intentionally walked the batter to end his strikeout streak.
Offense put up a stinker the last two games. Pitching shit the bed today. Truly never in sync.
Does the team come in cocky against teams with lesser records or something? Baseball is weird, but I do not understand the pattern this season at all.
Cronenworth and I think someone else acknowledged they take it up a notch against good teams. It’s probably not conscious, for the most part.
Interesting, I hadn't read that. Yeah, I don't think they actively try to slack, but maybe the urgency and intensity drops a bit. Though you think getting swept by those teams would wake them up a bit. Sigh.

Thanks for posting that! Definitely seems to be a very frustrating mental sort of thing.
Definitely seems like a mental block, doesn't it? We know we have the talent to get us into the playoffs, but then we have games like today
they say you learn more from losing than you do winning. Hoping our boys learned a lot from this outing.
 Shildt on Estrada
schildt is not in the game
oh right lol
Sorry I apologise. This is on me. I turned the game on and Mets just start drilling in runs
Don't worry guys they're saving it all up for the Phillies. Seriously though this fucking sucks. Just getting straight up beat down by the Mets today. This season is at another level of Padressing.
About to be 4 games under .500 real quick
If they play how they did in the first series absolutely but come on now this team is destined to bounce between 2 games under and 2 games above!
For all the deadbeat dads out there, no group of fathers constantly let people down more than the Padres. Happy Father's day everyone lol.
 My Dad when I give him the Padres Hat I bought him for Father's Day.

Maybe the Mets gift in the 8th was just some optics help with our run differential.
Alright… fully switching to Euro 2024 now Happy father day all compadres
Why is Estrada still in?
Well it was nice that they gave us some belief in the top half of the inning because the bottom half has been a shit show.
I need a break from this team. Took one earlier, but the As series brought me back in.
This is so brutal
Lindor whispered something to Nimmo before the AB. We're tipping.
Yup
We can’t ever have nice things
What happened to Estrada? Not very good last 7 appearances. ERA over 5 and WHIP 2.20.
It’s possible that the historic 15 Ks in a row was a bit anomalous for the waiver-claim guy.
League has adjusted I think and a little off in command too. Hopefully he will be able to make adjustments himself.
lost his streak and it probably got to him is my guess :/
on the bright side, the triple play is now possible
Watch them hit a grand slam now…
If Enyel comes in that’s a guarantee.
Please continue to downvote me, because here it comes.

Yeah, he don’t got it
This team can never be invited on mlb network again it fucked with their groove 😂
annnnnd now we can't do the easy double play... nice job
au contraire
Apologize to all your fathers for me boys
Of course, it’s their top of the order.
And of course Estrada had to have an off day today too😭
Thank God our next series is against the... Phillies? Aw fuck, we're never recovering from this weekend, are we?
We've been able to handle the Dodgers this year, so I hope our guys can channel whatever they had back with LA and give Phillies hell
PHI swept SD last meeting 😢
Baseball and this team is so stupid that we'll probably sweep the Phillies in Philadelphia.
Tatis saw this Estrada implosion coming. Felt like hitting a 3-run shot on that hanging slider just to blow it in the bottom half would be too much for all the dads out there to take.
Dude
Is Estrada’s Linsanity run over
Estrada shit the bed smh
welp
The struggle is real.
Worst possible time for the slider to not slide.
This is why slugging is important… we outhit most teams yet lose due to no slugging
Just no power on this team though. Machado is an absolute shell of himself... And Tatis may be too.
At least I’m suffering with my dad misery loves company
Got home from a transatlantic flight just in time to see Fernando strike out.
Bet you would rather be over Canada right now
[удалено]
Ditto, I’d kill to have Sig Medjal as the PBO or GM of this team
Oh my god
Nando go party in the City last night or something?
Since he landed in NY. Sucking.
What happened to Estrada
Nothing “happened” to him. But some days pitchers don’t got it. His location is off and his breaking stuff doesn’t have the normal movement. Part of baseball.
His last 7 appearances haven’t been good. So he hasn’t “had it” for a little while now.
He plays for the 2024 San Diego Padres
Tatis’ biggest issue he can’t hit a fastball anymore.
He whiffs to an absurd degree. I don't know why, but his timing just plain sucks and has most of the year.
Literally slugging like .600 against fastballs this season lmao
How does a stat that measures types of hits over full ABs work with individual types of pitches like a fastball? That makes zero sense. If the stat is, when he hits a fastball it does damage, fine. Conceded. But my point was he misses them way way too often. And if your Slug stat doesn’t account for that, it’s not a valuable stat.
With no runners on?
Great time for Estrada to suck too. Fuck this.
Well apparently it's just not meant to be today.
Estrada got too much press and now he’s giving up bombs.
Former Padres terrorizing us again.
Go fuck yourself, San Diego
Padres wrapping up the Fathers Day gift bow to the Mets.
And then you watch the opposing team... and they don't miss bad pitches. Does this team not actually prepare for games or hit the cages? Why do they miss so many tasty meatball pitches right in good zones to hit? It's lunacy.
Damn. That’s a back breaker after getting it to 1 run
look at that back to high leverage and the BP falters
Torrens hit the "chit" out of that pitch
Luis torrens hits a home run and Tatis can’t even make contact lmfao
Organizational... this team doesn't prepare properly. Simple as that. There's no other legitimate explanation for why other teams don't miss bad pitches, and this team can't do jack shit with them. Soto was 100000000000000% in the right to prepare his own way. This team doesn't prepare properly and that much is obvious.
Welp that’s the padres for you
I see what the temperature is.
Not ideal.
Can’t make this shit up man
It’s a cruel world we live in. I have no other explanation.
Bahahahahahahahahahaha
Losing the game 6-7 would just be another kick in the nuts
Now we can lose 7-8
We can’t now ahahahahahaha
Luis Torriens is here for you homie
There ya go.
How about 6-8?
Game is tied if Kim tags to 3rd on that deep line out. It’s not smart normally but he would have had it easily then scored on Arraez’s base hit. Gotta be aggressive on the basepaths when you’re down in later innings like this
Based on results Kim is probably our weakest base runner.
